Hunter/Jumper/Equitation

Riding Lessons

Blue Hill Farm provides structured hunter, jumper, and equitation training for riders of all ages and experience levels. Students are expected to take at least one lesson per week to ensure consistent progress, solid fundamentals, and confidence in the saddle.

Our program emphasizes correct position, effective communication with the horse, and comprehensive horsemanship skills. Lessons are delivered in a progressive, goal-oriented format, allowing riders to develop technical proficiency, track measurable improvement, and advance at a pace suited to their objectives.

Riders gain hands-on experience in all aspects of horse care, from grooming and tacking to mastering jumping courses and advanced riding techniques.

For those pursuing competition, we provide targeted coaching and support to help riders succeed in the show ring.

Horse Leasing

Looking to spend more time in the saddle and accelerate your riding progress? Our leasing program offers riders the opportunity to build stronger partnerships with their horses while developing essential skills and confidence.

Leasing allows riders to focus on consistent training, refine technique, and gain valuable experience in both everyday riding and show preparation. Whether you’re working toward personal riding goals, preparing for competitions, or simply looking for more hands-on time with a horse, leasing provides a flexible pathway to growth and success — without the full responsibility of ownership.

Limited lease opportunities are available. Contact us today to find the right match and take your riding to the next level.
